Power of Money
Chapter 498

Tyrion thought.

Now the most important task was not to consider the gains and losses of this painting, but to contact the outside world at the first time, tell them what had happened here, then know the details of this person, and then make Plan B.

The audience was silent for a moment.

Most people thought that the two people would bid at the end, and the focus of the auction was no longer the painting itself, but the resentment.

After all, the auction and the item were of equal value or worthwhile value. It was called a treasure hunt, which was worth the money. However, if they bought the item whose market value was far lower than its price, their behavior would be stupid.

In particular, the work of art had developed to this point, and it had become a business investment. These super rich people at present often spent a lot of money to buy various kinds of precious art works, but they had a premise that this thing had a great potential to increase the value of the works. The behavior of Jason was simply stupid in their eyes.

Of course, the wealth of this person who had never been heard of was enough to spend three billion yuan to buy this painting, and even these super- rich people were shocked.

They even speculated that this person was not from the mainland, but the spokesperson of the world's biggest family, the Rothschild family, in Asia. Otherwise, it would be really difficult for them to convince themselves and the gap between Jason and Jason.

"If no one bid again, this calligraphy painting from the history of Celestial Empire will belong to this gentleman. Let's thank him for his contribution to charity and congratulate us for witnessing the history of the global auction. It's rare and rare. We are all lucky..."

After the host asked a few more times, it was obvious that no one wanted to be such a fool. Even if they were willing to, they did not have the capital to challenge Jason. In the sound of the auction hammer beating out, Jason took the Classics of Women's History.

"Sir, do you need to take this painting away now or hand it over to our organizers? When the ships leave the high seas and return to Gavila, do you want to hand it over to you?"

Because of this auction, there was more or less some secrecy. Jason did not take the initiative to reveal his identity. Even if the host could see the corresponding number plate, he would not reveal the privacy of the guests.

"I need to rest. Send it to my room."

After saying that, Jason stood up and walked out.

The bank card had been handed over to the host of the auction, and the materials had been verified. The host only needed to send the painting to the lounge later and then swipe the card to complete the transaction.

Selina hesitated for a moment, and then followed him to leave.

Daniel had been waiting at the door for a long time.

Seeing Jason coming out, he immediately greeted him with a smile. "Mr. Xia, your lounge has been arranged. I'll take you there now."

"Where is the mobile phone?" Jason only wanted to get his phone number, get contact with Nadine, and discuss the next step of the escape plan.

"Sorry, your mobile phone will be presented later. Please rest first. When the auction is over, someone will naturally send your belongings to your room." Jason nodded and asked Daniel to lead the way.

The cruise ship had a separate presidential suite for every guest attending tonight's auction.

Daniel led the two of them upstairs. After finding the room belonging to Jason, he took out the room card and opened the door. He made a gesture of invitation and said, "The organizer will send the things you have bought to us in the late morning. You can rest for a while. There are red wine and snacks in the room, which are also prepared for you."

"How long will the cruise ship go back to Gavila?" Jason walked into the house and asked.

"Three hours later, two o'clock in the morning. Go back to Gavila on time."

"Three more hours..."

Jason nodded and said, "You go and do your work. Call me when the organizer comes. I'll take a break."

"Okay."

In addition to respect, Daniel's face showed an ambiguous smile. Obviously, he misunderstood the meaning of Jason's saying that he wanted to rest.

After sending Daniel away, Jason sat on the sofa next to the window in his room. The sea was dark in the middle of the night. There was nothing to see, so he simply closed his eyes and recalled the story of the cruise auction tonight.

The process was too smooth. On the contrary, Jason felt a kind of unspeakable uneasiness in his heart. This feeling had been his for such a long time, and he had survived countless times in the process of escape. Jason believed it very much, so he had escaped several fatal dangers.

"You don't seem happy?"

Selina took out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet and sat opposite Jason. She shook the bottle and said, "One?"

Jason opened his eyes, nodded and asked, "How do you know I'm unhappy?"

"You've already written it on your face. Can't you tell?"

Selina shook his head with a smile and opened the red wine with a opener. He poured two cups of wine and put one in front of Jason. Then he said slowly, "Is it because of money? But you don't seem to care about three billion yuan at all."

"Money can be earned if you lose it. If you lose your life here, you will lose more than you gain."

Jason sighed, picked up the glass and drank up the red wine, and the haze in his eyes became more and more intense.

"He just came to the high seas, so he won't lose his life so seriously. Mr. Xia, have you watched too many movies of Gavila?" Selina teased and poured the red wine in Qin's cup.

Jason glanced at her and was indifferent to the red wine in front of him. He asked in a low voice, "You have followed me all the way. Tell me, as long as you want, as long as it's not too much, I can promise you."

It seemed that Selina didn't just want to see the process of the auction. Although she was the goddess of jade when he was young, Jason didn't take her too seriously. Many actresses would eventually become the foil of the rich. They took part in such a charity night, in fact, they were looking for prey. Jason just needed a companion who could cover his eyes. There was nothing to say about the interest exchange. "Mr. Xia is going to order us to leave."

Selina didn't care about Jason's indifference at all.

On the contrary, he said with greater interest, "This is not the same as Mr. Xia I knew before."

"Previously? You've seen me before?"

Jason frowned. The name "Silas" was made up in the void. How could she have seen him before tonight?

"I haven't seen Mr. Xia before, but I was lucky enough to ride a horse with Mr. Hunter. Although it was the only time that Mr. Hunter would show up on the horse, I was lucky. I sat in the same room as him and chatted with him for a while. It seemed that he had encountered some trouble during that time..."

Selina sipped the wine, but his eyes looked at the young man in front of him intentionally or unintentionally.

It was as if they had met their old friends but did not know each other.

Jason's eyes narrowed. It was not because Selina talked about other people in front of him, but because the name "Silas" replaced the member of the Ma Club, and it was Hunter!

The guy who had been controlled and couldn't contact with the outside world!

"How did Selina know this man? And he deliberately mentioned him in front of me?"

Jason thought about it. It should not be because of the name problem, because all the relevant information related to Hunter in the Horse Club had been replaced by "Silas". Even if Selina really knew Hunter, it was impossible for him to be associated with him.

But why did she mention this second uncle who had been replaced in front of her?

Jason narrowed his eyes and then returned to normal. He said with a smile, "So Miss Hong wants to ask me for help to solve the problem for your friend?"

Selina also laughed.

The Jade Goddess, who had been watching movies in Gavila in the past, smiled and looked brilliant. It made Jason feel as if he had returned to a long time ago. He sat in front of the TV every day, waiting for the day when the most holy goddess in his heart appeared.

"Mr. Xia, you must be joking. Hunter and I are just one-sided friends. How can we trouble you, such a big shot, to do such a meaningless thing? Tonight, I come here to make a name for you. I just want to tell you something. I hope that Mr. Xia can wake you up." Selina smiled and began to speak seriously.

"Are you awake?" Jason nodded and said, "Miss Hong, please enlighten me."

Selina did not speak. Instead, he raised his hand and put his slender fingers into the wine glass. He stirred the scarlet wine with his fingertips and then took it out. He kept staring at Jason with his beautiful eyes. He put his fingers on the table and wrote down two words slowly with the wine.

"It's a surveillance!"
